Hi

It seems a problem we discussed a few days ago:
https://lists.schedmd.com/pipermail/slurm-users/2019-June/003524.html
But in that thread I thinking we were using slurm with workflow managers. It's interesting that you have the problem after adding the second server and with NFS share. Do you have this problem randomly or it's always happening on your jobs?

I tried to get an idea how many RPCs would be OK, but I got no reply
https://lists.schedmd.com/pipermail/slurm-users/2019-June/003534.html
My take is that there is no answer to the question, each site is different.

Best Regards

mg.

Subject: [slurm-users] Slurm: Socket timed out on send/recv operation - slurm 17.02.2

Hi,

Since configuring a backup slurm controller (including moving the StateSaveLocation from a local disk to a NFS share), we are seeing these errors in the slurmctld logs on a regular basis:

Socket timed out on send/recv operation

It sometimes occurs when a job array is started and squeue will display the error:

slurm_load_jobs error: Socket timed out on send/recv operation

We also see the following errors:

slurm_load_jobs error: Zero Bytes were transmitted or received
srun: error: Unable to allocate resources: Zero Bytes were transmitted or received

sdiag output is below. Does it show an abnormal number of RPC calls by the users? Are the REQUEST_JOB_INFO and REQUEST_NODE_INFO counts very high?
